Hsing Yun je významný budhistický mních, ktorý presadzuje filozofiu „humanistického budhizmu“. Jeho práca sa snaží prispôsobiť prastaré budhistické princípy potrebám moderného sveta, čo z neho robí kľúčovú postavu v reforme budhizmu. Hsing Yun je známy svojím aktívnym zapojením do zakladania kláštorov, univerzít a škôl po celom svete a podporou medzináboženského dialógu, čím sa stal jedným z popredných predstaviteľov globálneho budhistického hnutia.







In Bells, Gongs, and Wooden Fish, Venerable Master Hsing Yun grants voices to the objects of daily monastic life to tell their stories in this collection of first-person narratives. From monastic shoes to robes and alms bowls, these everyday objects tell the story of their lives and the life of Buddhism from their own perspective. Originally published in 1953, the collected sketches are both lyrical and satiric. The collection of inanimate speakers describe and criticize the state of Chinese Buddhism in the early twentieth century in which educating the laity is an afterthought and the day-to-day activities of monastics are dominated by funerary rites. Bells, Gongs, and Wooden Fish showcases the beginnings of Master Hsing Yun's work as a Buddhist reformer, and describes a path to revolutionize, modernize, and humanize Buddhism that resonates to this day.
In this collection of articles, Venerable Master Hsing Yun shares his reflections, insights, and wisdom, which are intended to inspire, enlighten, and motivate us to live a better life. 'In reality,' he writes, 'ignorance and enlightenment lie in just a thought! A thought of ignorance may cause sorrow and pain, while an inspiration of enlightenment can bring out the sun of wisdom.' 'If we change our views and outlook on life, we can change our destiny.' Such words are characteristic of the Master s writing in this book, often unexpectedly pointing the way to breakthroughs in our spiritual journey and growth.
“Nunca faça o mal. / Faça sempre o bem. / Purifique a mente”. Ao adotar essas orientações do Verso dos Sete Budas, o Venerável Mestre pontua que o correto comportamento é um fundamento da vida, sem o qual não é possível obter os benefícios da meditação em toda a sua inteireza. Neste livro, detalhes sobre a meditação em diferentes escolas do budismo chinês.
